GermanySpain's annual Festival of San Fermin began in Pamplona with thousands gathering to witness the iconic running of the bulls. The event started with the traditional 'Chupinazo' celebration, featuring revelers dousing each other in wine and grape juice while singing and dancing. The first bull run is set for Tuesday, with participants attempting to outrun the bulls through the city's streets. While the festival has historical roots dating back to the late 16th century and is linked to Ernest Hemingway's novel 'The Sun Also Rises,' it faces criticism for its risks, with dozens injured annually and 16 fatalities since 1924. Animal rights activists protested the event, wearing bull horns and red paint. The festival continues to attract international visitors despite ongoing ethical debates.
